Instructions
- Butter each slice of bread. Place 4 slices, butter side down, on the table or a cutting board.
- Spread the slices with 1 tablespoon dressing and top with 1 slice of cheese (or more to taste), ¼ of the sauerkraut and ¼ of the corned beef.
- Spread remaining dressing on the second piece of bread and place on top of sandwich, butter side out.
- Place in a skillet over medium low heat and cook until just golden and crisp. Flip and cook on remaining side.
- Cut in half and serve with additional dressing for dipping.
Notes
- Corned Beef: Use leftover cooked corned beef or deli corned beef. Ask the deli to slice the corned beef extra thick if possible.
- If you are loading up your sandwich with lots of meat or using thick corned beef, I find it best to heat the corned beef first. This ensures a hot sandwich without the bread burning.
- For a nice crispy exterior, use mayonnaise in place of the butter on the outside of the bread.
